Nest WiFi

  • Premium hardware, will improve coverage within your house
  • Schedule internet time-outs

  • Content filtering can be bypassed by tech-savvy people, however, pausing internet access entirely cannot be bypassed easily

Eero WiFi

Eero WiFi provides you with a similar premium experience as Nest WiFI and is owned by Amazon (Google's competitor). Eero was one of the first companies to offer mesh WiFi for homes and tends to be a market leader in user experience.

Pros

  • Premium hardware, will improve coverage within your house
  • Schedule internet time-outs
  • Pause internet access on demand

Nest WiFi or Eero?

These products are very similar, to make your decision easy, I would ask this simple question: Do I use Google Assistant or Alexa? If you use Google Assistant, go with Nest WiFi. If you use Alexa, go with Eero.
